Metallicity of the Monoceros Stream from A/F-type Stars
We have obtained metallicity estimates for a sample of A/F-type stars that appear to be members of the recently discovered Monoceros Stream. This sample of candidate main-sequence turn-off stars was chosen from the Sloan Digitized Sky Survey southern program spectra. The average metallicity, = -1.37 ± 0.04, is consistent with the abundance of six
